Photobiomodulation Before Eccentric Fatigue Protocol in the Control of Pain and Muscle Damage Markers: A Double-Blind, Randomized Controlled Study.

Several strategies are used in the management of delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS), but there is not always evidence to justify its use. Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a noninvasive means, with promising previous results of its use in this outcome. This study aimed to identify the effects of PBM in the femoral quadriceps region to reduce DOMS in men undergoing a fatigue protocol.
